For couples and families seeking Costa Del Sol’s lively beach life with everything close at hand, Hotel Best Siroco delivers the perfect balance.

Map & location


Benalmadena, Costa Del Sol, Spain

Benalmadena is split into an atmospheric whitewashed Old Town up the hill, a busy downtown area and a long sweep of beaches. Hotel Best Siroco sits in the resort centre on a steep slope, so you’re in a handy spot for strolling down to the seafront, hopping on a boat trip from Puerto Marina or riding the cable car up to Monte Calamorro for panoramic views.

By day you’ve got family attractions like the Sea Life centre, butterfly park and nearby theme parks; by night, the marina’s restaurants and bars come into their own, all within easy reach of the hotel.

  • Approx. transfer time from airport 45 minutes

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


The hotel’s three outdoor freshwater pools are set among trees and landscaped gardens, creating a more relaxed feel than you might expect this close to the resort centre. Two larger pools come with spacious sun terraces, loungers and parasols, while the separate children’s pool is shallower for safer splashing.

Pool towels are available with a refundable deposit, and facilities may differ slightly between pool areas. When you’re ready for the sea, it’s a short downhill walk of about 300m to reach Benalmadena’s long, sandy beach and lively promenade.

Spa, sports & wellness


Active guests can make use of the gym, which is equipped with cardio machines and a stretching zone, and complemented by a sauna and steam room for post-workout wind-down (18+; opening hours typically 10:00–20:00).

A programme of light sports keeps things sociable, from aqua aerobics and dance classes to darts, petanque and table tennis. Pool and snooker tables are also available (local charges may apply). Around the hotel you’ll find practical extras such as currency exchange, concierge support, luggage storage and the option to hire items like kettles, fans, pushchairs, wheelchairs or mobility scooters, subject to availability and local charges.
